Low Treatment Strategy

Fast-acting carbs that actually work:

• Smarties (don’t melt, pure sugar, especially good for summer and hot cars)

• Capri Sun (fast + reliable, great for nighttime lows)

• Juice boxes

• Lift shots / glucose tabs

• Fruit snacks

Important mindset shift:

• Treat lows like medicine, not snacks

• You don’t always need 15g: Sometimes 5–8g is enough

Pro tip:

• Keep 3 snack categories available:
  

• Fast carbs (lows)

• Regular snacks (in range)

• Low/zero carb (for highs)
